first time flower picture

(i love the nikon 60mm macro lens)

That is a great lens.

My frustration with all of my flower macro shots like yours is the failure to get all of the petals in focus due to insufficient depth of field. And when the depth of field is increased to f/22 or better, softness creeps in, and dustbunnies become very evident.

I'm looking into TS-E lenses to overcome this.
